Yukio Mishima wrote six Kabuki plays in his lifetime, but I was ashamed and didn't know such a fact, and I was surprised to find the word "Original Yukio Mishima" on the signboard of "Sardine Merrill Hiki Net".

Oh, Yukio Mishima, right?…While muttering, I tried to cross Harumi-dori St. north, that is, from the side of the Togaku Building to the side of the Ginza Shochiku Square Building, and suddenly came to my head was Yukio Mishima's novel "Hashizukushi".
Beside the Toshin Beltway, the Metropolitan Expressway is the Toshin Beltway.
Proceeding about 400m northeast along the Metropolitan High Loop Line, you will reach the rare Y-shaped bridge "Miyoshi Bridge" in front of Chuo-ku government office.
And Miyoshi Bridge is the first bridge to appear in Yukio Mishima's novel "Hashizukushi".

You can check the name of the bridge that appears in the Bridge Tsukushi.

The main stream of the Tsukiji River, which flows from left to right at the bottom of the figure, is the current Metropolitan Expressway. The East Theater Building is located around the lower right corner of the book.
The novel "Hashizukushi" is a story in which four women wish across seven bridges over the Tsukiji River on a full moon night on August 15 in the lunar calendar.
A small incident occurred while walking on a route of about 1 km, leaving one or two people.
Yukio Mishima's storytelling is skillful, such as the development that does not know who will succeed in crossing the bridge and the surprise of Ochi, and it is a work that is drawn in.

Speaking of Yukio Mishima, I learned in a newspaper article that his long-standing book (so-called ultra-short novel) was recently discovered.
The name of the book is "Koibun".
When a man called the "branch manager" tried to remove a handkerchief at a banquet, he found an envelope that had been unknowingly contained. "I'll wait in front of 5 o'clock tomorrow. There was a piece of paper written as X-ko. Who sent this love sentence to his wife and child, Kemmotsu Branch Manager?
From memos that indicate the existence of the meeting partner, the human pattern surrounding the branch manager is brilliantly developed in the number of characters less than one manuscript paper. This is also a work where Yukio Mishima's storytelling technology shines even more.
By the way, when I read in the newspaper the phrase "I'll wait in front of PX" written in this mysterious love sentence, a question in me came up.
PX is an abbreviation for Post Exchange, which originally refers to a stand in the U.S. military base.
After the war, many commercial facilities were requisited in Japan by the army and used as a PX for U.S. soldiers. In Tokyo, Hattori Clock Store in Ginza 4-chome (now Wako), Matsuya Main Store in Ginza 3-chome, Shirakiya in Nihonbashi, and Sogo Osaka Main Store in Osaka, and Daimaru Department Store in Kobe were requisitioned as PX. In other words, PX existed in cities all over Japan.
It was in 1949 that the novel "Koibun" was written. It was still a time when PX existed everywhere in Japan, and if you know it (which PX did Ms. X designate as the meeting place?) The question comes naturally.

So, I really wanted to elucidate the mystery, so I bought a literary magazine Shincho, which contains Yukio Mishima's Koibun.

Now, what is your impression of reading the novel "Koibun"?…
(Well, again, Yukio Mishima and Shiteyararetta!)

Why don't you? If you are worried about it, please read "Koibun" yourself and check it.
